Learning Academy Of Santa Rosa

Summary:

Learning Academy Of Santa Rosa is a public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in Milton, Florida, which is part of the Santa Rosa school district. With just 119 students, this school has consistently underperformed compared to its peers, ranking in the bottom 20% of Florida high schools.

The data reveals some concerning trends at Learning Academy Of Santa Rosa. Its proficiency rates on state assessments are alarmingly low, with only 7% of 10th graders proficient in English Language Arts and 6-8% of 8th graders proficient in math, compared to district and state averages around 50%. The school's four-year graduation rate has been below 50% for several years, reaching a low of 18.6% in 2019-2020. Additionally, the school has had extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, up to 87.1% in 2022-2023, which is more than three times the rate of nearby Pace High School and Milton High School.

The stark contrast between Learning Academy Of Santa Rosa and the high-performing nearby schools raises questions about the effectiveness of the charter school model in this context. With a very high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, the school may be facing unique challenges that require targeted interventions and additional support from the Santa Rosa school district and the community. Addressing the root causes of the school's struggles will be crucial to improving student outcomes.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
